Hi there
First I'd like to thank you for making this much needed tool. Very
well done. However I'm having some strange errors on RedHat 9 and I was
hoping someone could help out.
My girlfriend just bought me an RCA Lyra MP3 player for my birthday.
It's been rumoured that this driver allows me to sync with it, so I gave
it an install. I had a few issues at first, but when all was said and
done I was able to mount the lyra, read and write, and unmount just
beautifully. So off I go with tunes in hand, happy as can be. Later I
wanted to switch up the playlist, so I plugged it back in to the USB
port. When I typed in "mount /mnt/lyra" (I have an entry in fstab) as
root, I get this:
[root@localhost conor]# mount /mnt/lyra
mount: No medium found
So off I went to take a look at /var/log/messages, and here's what I
found as an entry when I plugged in my Lyra to the USB port:

If I reboot with the device on and plugged in, I can remount and
read/write just fine, but as soon as it's unplugged and plugged back in
I can't do anything with it 'till I reboot.
So is this the place to ask about this one, or should I be hitting up
the RedHat mailing lists? Thanks for any help you can offer.
